As a teacher, I have the privilege of working with children every day, and I’m constantly reminded of their strength, joy and resilience. It means a great deal to me to support a charity that does so much for children and families facing the most difficult circumstances.

Shooting Star Children’s Hospices cares for babies, children and young people with life‑limiting conditions, and their families across Surrey and London.

Whether lives are measured in days, weeks, months or years, they are there to make every moment count. They support families from diagnosis to end of life and throughout bereavement with a range of nursing, practical, emotional and medical care.

I couldn’t be prouder to be running for such an incredible charity. Your support—big or small—truly makes a difference.

Thank you for helping me champion a cause that means so much to me.
